My people, wetin dey happen for Lagos as two Chadian brothers, Musa and Yusuf, don land for wahala!
Na Chief Judge Kazeem Alogba na him direct say make dem deport dem after dem receive pardon during the 2026 decongestion exercise wey collect the free dem from prison. E no easy o! Wetin be this decongestion exercise? Na to free those wey fit dey start afresh. These two boys no fit wait for their chance, but dem still gree send dem back to their country.
The Chief Judge talk am clear for Ogba Magistrates’ Court say, “If you go back to your bad ways, e no go sweet for una.” Musa admit say na him use knife rob person as he dey talk how e don dey prison since 2018 without come court. E no fit show family member for court, but him dey waka for Ago Palace Way. Alogba no gree hear matter say, “You go back to Chad make you think am well.”
Aliu, him junior brother, talk say he steal money too, but him no carry knife or gun. Na so dem pack 18 inmates from different correctional facilities for Lagos, meaning some people dey luck, while others no fit see freedom.
Some of the females wey with dem include Nneka, wey collect N7 million for catering job but use am do fast business wey later fail, and Favour, wey say she only collect N2 million from N6 million to take care of her sick mama. Na so dem all dey beg the judge for another chance.
Another babe, Maria, wey dey catch designer items from her oga for work, and Faith, wey don dey prison since 2023, dey among those wey find light at the end of the tunnel. But no be everybody dey go free; some wahala boys like Michael and John dey still dey hold ground for prison for serious cases.
Even though some people don dey come out, na real case dey show say some dey still dey gree perform kabash wey e no suppose happen. Thanks to the Lagos State Correctional Service, as dem dey try reduce crowd wey dey prison, wey don plenty pass wetin dem fit carry.
Mr. Daramola George, wey be the oga for the correctional service, talk say the over 8,000 inmates wey dey prison dey put system for wahala. E sweet to hear say dem dey try turn things around to balance justice with mercy. Just imagine say you be your brother or sister, hope dey wey you fit change life.
As we dey look this matter, make we remember say justice no be say na to lock people up o, but to show dem road wey dey go fit make dem change. E be like say na work in progress, but people dey try!
